2011 Highlander

I'm currently looking at said vehicle. I've been quoted a price of $30,852.
The options are as listed: http://www.truecar.com/prices-new/to...1/options.html

I'm wondering if this is a fair price? Or should I continue to look? Thank you for your help.

I'm not hip to the latest prices for the Highlander, but if you go to AAA, Consumer Reports, Edmunds, etc., you can purchase a complete list of dealer cost for the vehicle versus the sticker price. Armed with the dealer's cost you know how much wiggle room you have, which is typically a lot.

I'm doing my best. I've looked at all of the mentioned sites, and just Instant Messaged one of the local dealers. His "cant go any lower" O.T.D. price was $30545. I'm just not sure if I have any more as you say "wiggle" room, plus the vehicle has been sitting on their lot for several months now.

When I was in the business Edmunds.com was spot on with invoice price/MSRP price/etc. Carmax.com also sells Toyota's close to cost so you can see what a fair price is. I wouldn't pay a .01 above what CarMax sells new Toyota's for.

Doing a quick look it looks like you are getting a very fair price for OTD. Tell him $30k even OTD and he has a deal.

p.s. I'd go with black because the wrap around lower valence cheapens the look of any other considerably. Bleech.
